<p>So basically the Maxwell Equations are all the equations that you learn in physics c e&m?</p>
<p>Why is there even a separate section dedicated to this? Is there anything I’m missing that might be on the AP exam? </p>
<p>*Self studying by the way… :D</p>
<p>Maxwell’s Equations are basically a summary of the Gauss’ Law, Faraday’s Law, Ampere’s Law and the Ampere-Maxwell Law.
The reason they are called Maxwell’s Equations is because although the laws were not discovered by Maxwell, he was the first to systematically derive them and express them in multivariate form. But for AP Physics C purposes, they are just the E&M Laws described above. Physics C does not require you to know the multivariate form, therefore you can learn them as they are referred to in the textbooks. </p>
